Awakened by Sin - 4 Stars - ARC review
Trying to keep it real here - I enjoyed this book a lot but didn't love it and I believe that's solely due to my expectation as a reader and not through any fault of the author's. I was expecting a story more similar to the first 3 Crime Lord books, with a clearly defined hero who's obsessed with the h. Instead, the story that was told was the story of a woman in pain and trying to deal with the loss of the love of her life. It was the story of a woman trying desperately to move on. It was well done and at times, gripping. I was just expecting more of a romance and this isn't a romance....yet. That isn't to say this isn't a good story. It is. I doubt anyone reading this will be bored, lol.
Ms. Knight's writing has vastly improved and I felt vested in her story. I love the characters and the Crime Lord world that she has created. I can't think of any triggers here except maybe that someone walked in on them having smex. The smex scenes were smokin' hot and happen early at the 7% mark. Fyi - This does end on a cliffy and not a hfn.
I do recommend this to everyone who loved the first 3 Crime Lord books. Just know that it's different, which isn't a bad thing.
